Candles

We used candles for so many things these days, they have become an everyday luxury and a magickal necessity rather than the utilitarian givers of light they began as.  We use them to provide atmosphere for a romatic rendezvous, for a relaxing bath and even for aromatherapy support.  Yet, candles and coloured candles in particluar have remained a staple magickal ingredient through the ages.  They are used create a circle, to cast a spell, to aid manifestation and even to protect the home. The colour of the candle plays a large role in focusing the intent of your magickal workings and Hollow Hill supplies our basic candles in sets of 4, 10cm tall coloured candles to help keep your magickal cupboard stocked for all occasions.
